"Made me realize that I am leader--and helped me figure out how to be a better one at that."
"I really liked that it was focused on students, rather than business people and executives. I could relate to what it was asking and telling me to do."
"I learned that leadership isn't about telling people what to do, but rather coming together to achieve a common goal.
